It is my goal to be kind, to inspire students to be their best, helping parents with home practice ideas, giving children a life long love of music.
Details
Students generally start Suzuki Guitar between three and nine years old. Parents attend lessons and help with the home environment by taking lesson notes, playing the reference recordings and learning to support learning in a positive way. The Suzuki Method is a complete instrumental training that develops the whole child, nurtures playing into young adulthood. The program includes individual lessons, by-weekly group class, recitals and a summer Institute (aka guitar camp) Group classes are an essential part of the Suzuki Method and very important for motivation, listening, leading and flexibility.
In Group Playing, students learn flexibility, how to follow, how to lead, and the joy of being a part of a musical group of peers.
